    Width properties

    Set the Minimum width, Maximum width or Fixed width of an element.

    Min width

    Set the minimum width of an element.

    Behavior:

    • Min-width prevents the width of the element from being smaller than the value set
    • Min-width does not prevent the element from growing in width if the content within it is larger than the value set
    • Min-width overrides the Width and Max-width properties.

    Expected value:

    • Enter a number

    Accepted units:

    You can leave blank or specify a unit to be used.

    • blank - Just add a number and the value will be interpreted as pixels and be converted to rem's automatically if this behaviour is set within Base unit settings
    • px - The value will be applied in pixels
    • % - The value will be applied as a percentage of the parent elements width

    Note: Additional units are accepted. For more information see https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_units.asp
